Away from the dancefloors, Sydney’s Angophora continues the journey they started on Ken Oath Records with their debut album 'Scenes'. Now the Australian duo releases their second album 'Together' on Kenneth Bager's label Music For Dreams. 

Resting pulses and humid atmospherics frame gentle percussion, warm synth work and tasteful guitar licks that take a note from the Balearic handbook but remain clear in their appreciation and respect for the sounds and colours of Australian nature. Music best listened with the ancient ochres of the Australian outback in view. So seamlessly will the sonic palette of Scenes fit your surroundings, you’ll begin to question whether or not these gentle surroundings are being emitted from the wax spinning on your plate or Eucalypts whirring in the wind around you.

The album is available in all digital stores: https://music-for-dreams.lnk.to/together

Angophora - Together (Full Album) - 0187

---> @princesspdj

It's in the nature of things that working in a record shop trains the knowledge of music. If you listen and look at Princess P at her work behind the turntables, it quickly becomes clear that she has enjoyed an excellent (listening) education: for years she worked for Plattfon Records in Basel, one of the pearls of Swiss record stores, and helped shape the store's musical agenda in buying and selling.
She selects records in every context with aplomb, surprise and flexibility, which bear witness to her genre-independent expertise: whether at Zurich's club institution Zukunft, Elysia in Basel or during the Montreux Jazz Festival, her DJ sets are based on savoury house with a touch of indie and techno.
Since 2020 Princess P runs together with her partner Cio from Spezialmaterial a monthly residency on Mutant Radio, where they mostly play music aside the dancefloor.

RADIO.D59B / PONOCNI PROGRAM #18 w/ Dj Brka

The central theme of this episode is >the future<. Or rather, how uncertain it is today and how the understanding of it has changed in recent times, not least because of the COVID pandemic.
The central point is the words spoken by Jacques Derrida:
"In general, I try to distinguish between what one calls the future and l’avenir. The future is that which – tomorrow, later, next century – will be. There’s a future which is predictable, programmed, scheduled, foreseeable. But there is a future, l’avenir (to come) which refers to someone who comes, whose arrival is totally unexpected. For me, that is the real future. That which is totally unpredictable. The Other who comes without my being able to anticipate their arrival. So if there is a real future beyond this other known future, it’s l’avenir in that it’s the coming of the Other when I am completely unable to foresee their arrival."

If one listens carefully, one will find there:

Hope born of misery as in a piece 'Tomorrow’s song' by Olafur Arnalds from a compilation that has been curated to benefit all of those affected by Hurricane Sandy from 2012.

Distant but somehow familiar places as in 'Flower' by Jonny Nash, from an LP inspired by descriptions of landscapes from books by J.G Ballard or Cormac McCarthy.

A wall of sound that instead of destroying the senses gives a surprising sense of safe separation from the chaos of the world as in Stephen Bishop and Mariam Rezaei 'The Land at Rest'.

Visions of the future but told in the past... like in “Meditation” from Tarkovsky's 'Stalker' soundtrack.

Halloween on NTS: Korean Horror Soundtrack Special 311021

It's a great pleasure to welcome Japanese electronic music stronghold Kaoru Inoue (@kaoru324), also known as Chari Chari and founder of the Seeds And Ground label, to the mix series. Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Welcome on board of the series Kaoru. You're from Japan and are living in Tokyo. Do you find Tokyo, and Japan as whole, a positive place to be at as an artist?

KI: Tokyo is a fascinating city, full of crazy stimuli and exciting noise, but I don’t need it anymore as the years go by, especially after the pandemic. So now I feel like an outsider loving Tokyo and living a quiet life in its suburbs. I think it’s a positive place for artists in the sense that it’s still rich in nature and food, and the population is decreasing, despite having experienced the high economic growth and the high information society, but what we learned again after the pandemic is that government protection policies are fragile. 

MFM: Your musical output as a producer is quite large and rather versatile, from acoustic guitar sessions to more new age like soundscapes to broken beat and deep house. Where does this versatility come from? 

KI: I think it's because I've been deeply committed to music since my teens. From YMO to post-punk, ethnic, rare groove to deep house, I was already looking for and listening to music like a researcher from a young age. So I started DJing naturally as a way to mix and share my records, and my outputs could be a fusion of them. However, so to speak, I’ve been most influenced by the contextuality of House music, and when looking at everything from a bird’s eye view, I can say that my main interest is, in a word, in “Minimalism”.

MFM: Your music -regardless which moniker you use- sounds extremely organic, very earthly but also mystical and sacred. As if it was recorded far deep in nature amongst some indigenous tribe's ritual. Where does this signature sound come from, what are its origins?

KI: My early tunes were strongly influenced by the atmosphere of Bali & Java in Indonesia, where I used to visit in my twenties, and I think it still remains somewhere in me. I also have a cultural anthropological interest in folk or tribal music from all over the world, and I even am influenced by ecological ideas. (In recent years, I’ve been more into traditional & contemporary music from my own country than ever before.) I think that’s why it is.

MFM: Hence your own label's name Seeds And Ground too probably? 

KI: Indeed, and it’s a metaphor for sex and creation.

MFM: How about the instruments? There's guitar, lots and lots of percussion, marimba, field recordings, plenty chords too... Are you a trained musician and do you record all these parts yourself (with the real instruments)? 

KI: I had learnt to play piano as a child and taught myself to play guitar from the age of 13. However, after encountering DJ culture in my early twenties, I quit a band and didn’t play an instrument for a while. So I know a little more about harmony, chords and so on than the average DJ. I’ve also started to play the guitar again a little bit in a few projects since I started producing electronic music, but only in a very specific way. I’ve also recorded with many different musicians so far.

MFM: So, what can you tell about the mix you've made? Did you record it with a certain vibe or theme or purpose in mind?

KI: It’s a rethinking of “New Age”ish or “Obscure”ish music, past and present. Some Japanese music from the 80s and 90s has also been included with respect to Eiji & Norio who compiled “Heisei No Oto”. And two of my recent tracks as Chari Chari are also included.

MFM: By the way, by the look of your shirt you're a Jodorowsky fan? :)

KI: I look up to Jodorowsky as my mentor, especially after reading his autobiography. I got this shirt as a return from the Endless Poetry crowdfunding campaign.
